KidStrong did not start as a franchise system. It started as a parent's instinct."When we started KidStrong, we weren't trying to build a national business. We were parents who wanted to help our daughter become stronger and more confident. What began as a small class in the back of a gym has become a movement reaching families across the country."- Matt Sharp, Co-Founder and CEOHere is what makes the business work:<ul style="list-style-type: disc; padding-left: 1.5em; margin: 0.5em 0;"><li style="margin: 0.25em 0; color: #2f3330; font-family: var(--font-nexa-bold); font-size: 1rem">A proprietary curriculum blending physical training, cognitive development, and social-emotional growth for kids walking through age 11</li><li style="margin: 0.25em 0; color: #2f3330; font-family: var(--font-nexa-bold); font-size: 1rem">A membership model that drives recurring revenue and keeps families coming back week after week</li><li style="margin: 0.25em 0; color: #2f3330; font-family: var(--font-nexa-bold); font-size: 1rem">Additional revenue through birthday parties, seasonal camps, and summer programming</li><li style="margin: 0.25em 0; color: #2f3330; font-family: var(--font-nexa-bold); font-size: 1rem">Parents who do not see KidStrong as just another activity.

The KidStrong Difference

Colorado is one of the fastest-growing, family-oriented markets in the country, with more than 5.8 million residents and over 1.3 million children. Across the Front Range, including Denver, Boulder, and Fort Collins, parents are actively prioritizing structured programs that build confidence, resilience, and real-life skills, not just activities to fill time. With more than 2.3 million households and a median household income approaching $90,000, Colorado represents a highly engaged and expanding customer base for premium youth development programs. That’s exactly where KidStrong wins. In Colorado, parents don’t just spend on their kids; they invest in their future.

LongmontA rapidly growing community anchored by young families drawn to its quality of life, strong schools, and its position between Denver and Boulder.

GreeleyWeld County, home to Greeley, has grown 14 percent since 2020, making it one of the fastest-expanding family markets on the Front Range and one of the most compelling first-mover opportunities in the state.

Colorado's best kids franchise opportunities are concentrated along the Front Range and into the university communities and suburban corridors that define how this state grows.Colorado's scale and market depth make it one of the strongest states in the country for semi-absentee and multi-unit franchise opportunities. Whether you are targeting a single territory or building a portfolio across multiple Front Range markets, the runway here is significant. These are the cities KidStrong is focused on.
